Viviana Maggioni, PhD. is Associate Professor of Environmental and Water Resources Engineering at George Mason University. Dr. Maggioni received her B.S. and M.S. degrees in Environmental Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Milan, Italy, in 2003 and 2006 respectively, and her Ph.D. degree in Environmental Engineering from the University of Connecticut, Storrs, in 2012. Her research interests lie at the intersection of hydrology and remote sensing. In particular, she is interested in the application of satellite remote sensing techniques to estimate and monitor hydrological variables at the local to global scale. Her work has direct applications in water resources management, weather and climate prediction, as well as agriculture and irrigation practices. She is the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Hydrometeorology (American Meteorological Society Publications) and Associate Editor of Frontier in Climate – Climate Services. She currently serves as the Chair of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting Program Committee for the Hydrology Section and as the Director of Undergraduate Affairs in her Department at Mason. She has served as one of the two co-chairs of the International Precipitation Working Group (IPWG) and the Chair of the AGU Technical Committee on Precipitation.
